How can teachers edit or delete a message?

null  Audience: Teachers

Conversation owners can edit and remove messages. Any teacher or admin who is explicitly added by name to the recipients of an announcement thread automatically becomes an owner. Additionally, Admins have the ability to manage or audit Seesaw Messages sent between users at their school. This includes the ability to view all conversations and announcements sent at the school, as well as remove messages that the administrator considers unnecessary or inappropriate.
